Over the last 7 years I’ve had over 30 sitters from Trusted Pet Sitters, and Marisa is one of the few special people who arrived as a sitter, and left as a friend. Firstly, she travelled over 12 hours from New York to South of France to do my sit. If that doesn’t deserve a pet sitter medal I don’t know what does. When Marisa arrived she was instantly easy to get on with - easy going, funny, no dramas despite having flown for a day and having jet lag hit her. She was upbeat, chatty, full of good energy and life. It sounds like a cliché but I felt like we were old friends as soon as I met her. The handover was easy (with 3 ferrets it’s not always easy) and Marisa learned their faces to names quicker than anyone ever has. I felt so relaxed with her being in my home and looking after my fur babies that when I got sick during my “holiday” my last thought was to check my phone to check in on her. Marisa dealt with my absence due to bedridden Covid like a pro - even though the ferrets were throwing her curveballs that I hadn’t foreseen, she was caring and invested and professional and even managed to make me howl with laughter when I finally did check my texts to learn about their antics. This girl will make you laugh or your money back 🤣 She even got a ferret scar during her time but didn’t make a drama out of it, just took it in her stride. I felt like she really loved and understood my animals which is what we all want to feel when we are away. Once I got home after this 7 day sit, she picked me up from the airport (in my car, unscratched, so you can trust her with your car) and we got on so well I invited her to stay at mine for a long weekend sit extension, over New Year’s Eve into the new year. I’ve never had a sister but hanging out with Marisa at home for a few days gave me a glimpse of what having an easy going, funny sister that you can tell all your stories to must be like. We even face timed her mom who was 6 hours behind France’s time zone and her mom is just as warm and lovely and ended up inviting me out to her home in the states. Just a wonderful and warm family in all. This was a fantastic experience for me and my ferrets who loved Marisa and still miss her. I can recommend Marissa with more than 5 stars to whoever is lucky enough to have her apply. She is resourceful, has loads of common sense, is great with animals and has a huge love for all animals - and if you have the chance to hang out with her then I can guarantee very interesting conversations and lots of belly laughing. Marisa thank you 💗⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Valerie was an excellent sitter! She was responsive, communicative, attentive and all with a caring, peaceful presence. We, as first time TH users, didn't communicate very well about our adjusted return time but Valerie was gracious and understanding. We would love to have Valerie sit for us again!

Sheri and Kevin were everything you want in house and pet sitters! Reliable, loving to Clemmie (the kitty!), very communicative, and organized and clean. Highly recommend and can only sing their praises!

Stephanie cared for my cat and dog for a week. She was proactive in communication before and throughout the sit, sharing cute photos and updates while I was away. The home was very clean and tidy when I returned.  She clearly has a big heart for fur babies and is a responsible and dependable sitter. Thank you, Stephanie!

If we could give  this more  and than 5 stars I'd live it 100%.  Thomas was very thorough and responded quickly to angry questions we had.  Somona is a special place and we loved all bit offered.  Their home is lovely and it had c everything we needed us more.  Their backyard is picture perfect and we spent a x lot of time out there.  I can't say enough wonderful things about Daisy, their Jack Russell.  He is a sweetheart and also knows how own mind. He talks to you and will let you know when he wants to return home on his x walksWe took
